Yes, I realize that, but this is an uncommon situation where a GPL
package is being developed to generate a non-free one.
Similar to the game-data-packager, googleearth-package, java-package and
vmware-package, I developed sqldeveloper-package which lives on
<http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/contrib/s/sqldeveloper-package>.
sqldeveloper-package is GPL and it fulfills requirements to belong to
main (I classified it as contrib, because all other packages of its sort
are in contrib), and its purpose is to generate a local installable SQL
Developer package.
Since someone might decide to try either a similar or other approach
this ITP is just to avoid duplication of efforts. I believe that
sqldeveloper-package, if ever accepted, should close this ITP, since
it's its purpose.
